I drilled 2 sets of pilots but for that 7/16ths just not gonna work, way to soft, good thing it was cheap, very nice board Bruce, that thig is exacting. I had a press just not ready to tackle a couple hundred holes and one mistake and it's over. They named the game right "aggravation" I know I'll never use a soft wood again, and yes it looked like I chewed a hole in the wood, take care. Chad

Man, I gotta get over there, we have one in town, thanks for the info Tommy !!

Nice board Bruce yeah buddy, I collect Chinese Checker boards, looks like cedar. My favorites are the old cardboard ones with the killer graphics & of course the wooden one but I also have quite a few tin also. I'll try and get a good bunch together for a pic. I just tried last week to make one for my aunt out of pine, it clogged the bit and screwed up on the first hole, maybe a little harder wood, I have a template and everything, you have to get every exactly right, I even messed up on the aggravation board I tried to make, same story "Pine" I found, is not a good wood to use. ...........

Good grief, I've been duped by a walking sphinx with arthritis !!

"Welcome Dustin" Great to have you, jump right in Brother !! Regards, Chad G.

Them look like untouched mibs, I wants me share Aaarrg !#@$$%&*^%#$%$

Lookin good Brother ........................................................... Are you using a tube or a bulb Tommy ???

Nice !!!

Some of the very best friends I have are marble friends, true blue thru & thru. Good times & good friends that will never be forgotten. Great pic Bill !! "Thanks"

Great Brick, hasn't been touched, great tail & drizzle trail, score

One more for the road, a 25/32nds miller burnt spiderman. Not gonna argue with a little pocket ware when it's over 3/4

Oops !! I forgot my new little friend, this marble was given to me by a "very generous marble Brother" Coming in at just under 1/2" a little powerhouse Wolverine. A great thing receiving something from someone you'll probably never meet until we leave this earth. Here sittin next to a 1/2" dead on faceted agate I got the same day. I've got some really good pics of the Wolverine comin, I was in a hurry when I took these. I took the first one 10 seconds out of the box, it's still layin in it's nest.

There's gold in them hills, Akro gold, the more you dig the more you want, an endless mountain of happiness.................

"Yes" a brick to me Tommy, not positive on the Akro, I'm leaning towards MFC. I have a few small 9/16ths MFC but all of them have white or black, hang on I'll look for some pics. Can't find em right now so a few from my friend Terrys collection & my saved pics. MFC white brick Another MFC white brick Another MFC white brick, they don't necessarily have to have a 9 pattern. I have never seen a akro with white , black, or green but I have seen plain bricks made by MFC as "I believe" yours is. I'm not absolutely positive so maybe a few more posts will help. MFC black brick Ebay sale, MFC green brick

Yes I agree new, they come in almost every color base glass possible, orange, yellow, red, etc. I was going through some at a shop for someone just yesterday and they had about 20 or more of these, I have seen them before but the name or country origin of the manufacturer escapes me ?? I was just about to say, all of them where about 13/16ts or so.

Well I finally started collecting Vitro's. I picked up 2 opals, a buttermilk a bunch of yellow jackets and a few helmets, green face, black face, red face a blue face and one a kind of yellow, before this I had a really nice trilite and some blackies stuffed away in a jar. All I have is a pic of the trilite for now. Resembles a cler face helmet with red, white, blue & yellow stripes, Oop I just seen some old helmet pics also, these are my old ones, I don't believe I have them anymore ??

I can't resist, I think I'm addicted a "mibaholic" my friends call me a Pelthead. I don't know if it's because of the knots on the back of my head or my addiction to Peltiers ............................ and Akros, and alleys, and ................. I've even started a contemporary collection, something I thought I'd never do ?? Ah well I can think of a lot of worse things to be addicted to.

A couple new ones. A 25/32nds broken cork superboy and another 11/16ths superboy, excellent colors on this one

Yes a silver ox, an "ace "base color, non uv reactive. Here are a couple just like yours. Wish I had the sun year round for pics, the big one is over 3/4ths & the little one is 11/16ths, clean as a............................

Silver Ox ??

I just took the light to it again, definitely a slag. translucent or as we using the old term "semi transparent" Oop's !! between 13/16ths & 7/8ths, closer to 7/8ths on the digitals.

Can't wait for them pics, I can almost taste em now !!

"Thanks Tommy" the more bizarre the more I like, I sholulda sot some more views, nothing about it is normal. it's almost opaque

a "Poosh Em Up" " Big 5 " table top steelie pinball game in near new shape, I got a very good price on this one, and play it every time I walk by. The graphics are killer, no water damage or anything else I could find. A very sturdy little game. I picked up one of the older shoot a loop games also but you're gonna have to wait on the pics.

Well I'm a couple hours early but gonna be a bit busy tomorrow, So!! This is the weirdest slag I have, just got it two weeks ago, I'm almost sure it's Akro. A bizarre tie died looking marble in hand, I just couldn't put it down a smidge over 7/8ths so a good size, nice & clean.
